WESLEE’s song Boys Cry is particularly striking because of its grave theme and exquisite production. In dealing with the sensitive subject of male vulnerability, their way is fresh and powerful. The combination of a very smooth, soulful melody and modern minimalist beats makes the track sound at once contemporary yet eternal. The vocals are especially effective in bringing out the moving lyrics with a sense of earnestness that carries through. The merging of emotive songwriting with subtle electronic elements shows WESLEE’s ability, creating a thought provoking and very listenable track. Boys Cry revels in the talents of a couple who can produce music capable of breaking down walls and undermining traditions, so it will provide an inspiring bookend to our age.
